Jewish Devotional Practices

Devotional practices belonging to Judaism, including the fixed daily and festival prayer services such as Shacharit, Mincha and Maariv, the additional Musaf service, liturgical compositions such as Selichot, Pesukei Dezimra, Hoshanot and Hakafot tied to specific festivals, the Sabbath-welcoming Kabbalat Shabbat, the Omer-counting observance of Sefirat HaOmer, the grave-visiting custom of Kever Avot, the annual remembrance of Yahrzeit, and the scribal art of Soferut governing the production of Torah scrolls, tefillin and mezuzot. A practice such as candle lighting or blessing that Judaism shares openly with other traditions in the atlas's own live text, rather than naming Judaism as its single tradition, stays ungrouped instead of being placed here on a partial match.
